Hi everyone! I’ve been lurking here for a few weeks so thought I’d better say hello :) I’m a long time coffee drinker who has dabbled in (bagged) tea, but I’ve recently been bitten by the loose tea bug! I’ve ordered a few samples from various companies (UK mainly, since that’s where I am) & I’m enjoying the adventure so far!

Last thread of the evening, but new to here as of yesterday. Will be updating bio/cupboard after my midterm on Wednesday. Looking forward to advice and recommendations being as I’ve only been a tea drinker for less than a few months.

Howdy,
My oldest daughter encouraged me to join steepster, since she introduced me to loose leaf tea, so here I am. She is my tea mentor; although, she says she is a newbie here too. A bit about me; I homeschool my youngest daughter and developed an interest in drinking tea for the health benefit. In between those two daughters I have a grown son and another daughter.

Welcome Susan. I joined Steepster within the past year and have had fun with it and learned a lot. I have 2 in college and one in med school. As a result of my interest in tea, others in my family have discovered they like it too. Two of my kids enjoy tea when they come home on breaks. My husband has also found teas he likes, but he and I don’t have exactly the same tastes. Anyway, thanks to everything I’ve learned on Steepster, I have a nice stash of a variety of teas. Something for everyone.

Hi y’all, I heard about this site when I ordered some tea from Zoomdweebie’s (52teas – which I heard about on Twitter – love the Internet). Looking forward to learning more about the great teas that are out there (and tasting them too).

I first bought the Chocolate Mint black tea because I’ve been searching for a recreation of a chocolate mint black tea that I had at a tea shop in Greenwich Village (NYC) – and it was exactly what I was looking for. I’ve bought a few other flavors from there since, and I’m currently waiting for an order of iced tea blends right now (really looking forward to Lime Cola). I think it’s my favorite place to order tea online right now.
